Re: can't see others in network places nor can i join domain

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Matt,

I installed SBS 2k3 in an environment that already has a domain setup, this
is correct, however, intention of this server is not to co-exists with
existing domain, but to replace it. i can't take down my existing domain
untill this one if fully build, functional and tested.

and by "nor obviosly i can join this domain" was refering to that after
building this SMS 2K3, I can not join this domain (from new server)
